Best tip I ever got, from a sound mixer in a TV studio in fact, was a very simple, zero cost one. Turn your volume down so you can barely hear your mix and listen again. Anything that's too far forward or to far back in the mix will stick out like dog's nuggs. First time you do it and say "hey, where did those high hats go?" you'll see how valuable it is.
Great tips. I want to add something extra. If you’re not sure the EQ (or other effect) improves the track or not, place your mouse on the bypass button, close your eyes and repeat the on/off until you don’t know when it’s on or off and choose the setting that sounds best (with your eyes closed). Also make sure that if you apply any processing, that the output level is the same as it is without the effect plug-in. Don’t rely too much on the analyzer. Yes it’s good to put one on the master bus but let your ears do most of the job. If it sounds good, it is good. Last tip and probably the most important one: mix at a low volume. Our brain works in such a way that we define louder sound as better, which is not always the case. Another benefit of mixing at low volume is that it’s easier to balance each channel inside your track. It also prevents hearing damage in the long run. Keep in mind that your ears are the most important tools you have as a music producer! So how loud should you be mixing at? A good rule of thumb is between 75 and 85 dB SPL A weighted. You can measure the SPL with a dedicated hardware SPL meter. You can also download a free or paid decibel meter on your smartphone.

@@EDMTips Can you do a series on Rock based mixing ? i think it would expand your audience and would be interesting to see what elements would be changed and why
great tips but I want to add something extra. Putting reverb on an aux\send\bus isn't just about giving more control, there is a more detailed way to explain it (albeit a bit longer, but its stuff you should know). It also leaves the dry signal completely unaffected. For example, lets say I had a lead sound that cuts through the mix very nice, loud and prominent. If I was to put a reverb straight onto the lead, the more reverb I add the less the lead will cut through the mix, the less loud and prominent it will be because the dry signal becomes lower the more reverb I add. If whoever is reading this ever dj'd before, its similar to how a crossfader works on a mixer. dry/wet is basically a crossfader between the reverb and the dry signal. Most professional dj's don't touch the crossfader at all they just leave it centered, and they instead use the track faders to mix in and out because it gives them more control. The same principle applies with routing send fx to a new channel versus using them as an insert. If I put a reverb on my track, it will make the dry signal lower. If I turn up my track to compensate for the loss in dry volume, it will make the reverb too loud. I may try balancing the wet/dry signal again to be more dry, but then the dry signal will become too loud. And it becomes an infinite loop of trying to get it to sound right but it will never sound as good as using the reverb on a send because I can fine tune how it sounds more accurately this way. Reverbs are send effects, there is a reason why they are listed under this category. They are not supposed to be insert effects, they are supposed to be sent on a bus. Insert effects are for example compressors, limiters, eq and so on. Stuff that doesn't add extra elements to a sound, but instead modifies the signal. Knowing the difference between insert effects and send effects you should consider to be mixing basics. What to send, and what not to send you should already know. If you don't know, you should google around difference between insert and send effects and try to get it stuck into your head which are inserts and which are sends. Anything that is insert put it straight on your channel, anything that is send you route to a new channel (send\aux\bus). As a general rule of thumb the way to think about an effect you want to add is "how does this effect my sound?" Anything that has a dry/wet knob, is usually a send effect. Unless there is some bizarre insert plugin that has dry/wet knob that I have not seen (I have tried many, literally never seen it) consider this to be 100% accurate. Chorus - duplicates the sound into multiple voices, and detunes them to play at different semitones to add width to the sound, has a dry/wet knob. send fx obviously Reverb - adds reverb to a sound, if you dunno what reverb is the simplest explanation is it simulates what the sound would be like in certain environments. e.g you can have room reverbs, hall reverbs, cathedral reverbs etc. has a dry/wet knob. send fx obviously Delay - adds delay to a sound, think of delay as you are in a cave and you shout "HEY!" (basically echo, but not exactly since echo can also refer to reverb as well). You hear yourself saying Hey hey hey hey (dipping in volume until you cannot hear it anymore). That is basically what it does. has a dry/wet knob. send fx obviously Compressor - modifies the sound so that it stays at a consistent level of volume, does not have a dry/wet knob. insert fx obviously Limiter - modifies the sound so that it never peaks above a certain level of volume, does not have a dry/wet knob. insert fx obviously If you start thinking about it like this, it becomes very obvious which fx you should have on a send channel and which you shouldn't.

Extremely usable advice. I applied a handful of the tips that were new to me to a melodic techno track I''m working on and it's night and day, multiple level ups in a 24 hour period. 1) A little saturation everywhere is a game changer 2) Use those effects busses! All of a sudden it sounds like you're in one space with all the instruments, immediately glues the track together a bit, especially a touch of reverb on everything, subtle, even the kick, and 3) mix more quietly for later mastering, throw a Utility on the master channel and give it +6db of gain, mix to 0 db and then turn the utility off for mastering to give me 6db of headroom. Great stuff, thank you!
Sidechain to the reverb on vocals is really a good thing. I was wondering for years why my vocals so lost and not in front. This technique with low cutting reverb is hugh. Saturation on vocals great as well. That's are information that beginners not know and come up with frustration by joining the own music. Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️
11:15 wow that you even mention this is golden. I make dubstep and usually you want to modulate the mid and highs while keeping the sub bass untouched. I learned this from INFEKT but I'm very impressed that it's here aswell
I'm happy to say I'd incorporated all these tips into my productions many years ago and can say you nailed it. The tips in this one video could save any newbie years of frustration! Excellent presentation too! 👍👍
One of the best tips I ever got was from My mate who was one of the main engineers who did loads of the biggest rave tracks.. He said when I’m doubt turn your computer monitor off ,restart your arrangement and you’ll feel the flow of the track better .. he used too have a note pad and write which parts needed changing and at what time..he also taught me that you know if a tracks working if listening back the track sounds like it doesn’t sound like it drags,if it sounds like it’s ended quick yet it’s been on 4 minutes you know your onto a winner.
i've done mixing in mono a lot, and sometimes i even forget that it's mono and it sounds great until i realise, that i haven't yet tried to listen to stereo mix. it blew my mind how clean and full everything sounds. so yeah, mixing in mono is a great way to relax your ears and balance volumes/frequencies. also it's a good way to check if there are some crazy wide sounds, that lose a lot of punch in mono. also one of the reasons i think mono is important is because people sometimes tend to play songs on mono devices (like a phone speaker for example).
I actually accidentally exported my track in mono to send to some other artists for feedback. They said it sounded really flat. And then when I looked back in my DAW I was like well no wonder... it's in mono lol.
Being able to mix the reverb seperate from the dry vocals is a great tip. Honestly never thought of that. Being able to take some bass off the reverb without affecting the main track.
U wanna take ur sidechains to the next level then sidechain two instruments against each other at difference frequences and youll know what true glue sounds like
Super helpful! Def will try to use the compression on the reverb for my vocals. Recently got a delay plug-in with duck function and that helped immensely already!
Just a tip with Span, if you use the vst plug you can sidechain the ref track in to span, show it as a different colour and just use the single instance
You are a gift from the electronic music gods. I have been trying to wrap my head around 90% of these things in mixing and you answered and helped me understand them all in less than an hou after I read a whole book on mixing and came up empty.
I think reference tracks and high-quality monitoring are absolutely key. I remember being at music college and referencing my deep house track in 2013 against a Skrillex track at the time on Genelecs. It made me change so many aspects of the track and then quite amazingly the track went to BBC 1Xtra track of the week.
After first hearing Genelecs in 1987, I suggested them to my company who bought 450 pairs. Only a couple of years ago - -I got my own from ebay ! S30c (h). Immaculate - £900:.. ! worth the wait.
Thanks Will - some absolute gold in here. Another option for emulating different systems is the Reference Check feature in Sonarworks, and you get to calibrate/correct room and headphones as well
Kick and Bass Bus ... wow a huge tip for me - this sounds so much deeper and more pro but with the reverb aux channel chain tip my eyes get wet because i was so thankfully about this huge tip!! Greetings from germany, Alex.
That's a great list! From my personal experience I would like to add two things that really helped me: 1) Checking certain frequency bands on their own For example applying a filter to the master to only hear frequencies below 70-90 Hz - so only the low end. Or only the mid bass section from like 90 - 300 Hz. And also comparing that to the same frequency range on the reference tracks. This is also helpful for peak matching with the reference tracks. 2) Being aware of the signal flow and the effect sequence If you roll of low frequencies with an EQ and then put on saturation afterwards, you introduce new (probably unwanted) low frequencies to your sound. Or if you put a sidechain compression on a sound to let the kick cut threw the mix and then put on a reverb afterwards, the reverb again fills the space you wanted to create.
I did Will’s Radio Ready Program and other courses, and watch many of his youtube video’s. The things i’ve learned from him, man alive! I’m setting myself up for my next step in music production, and that is to make my music sound pro with becoming a student of his Accelerator Program. But i wanted a good base first before i take that step. Can’t wait to get to the top of the mountain and enjoy the view…. Thanks Will
So I'm an older guy and have been watching tons of your videos before I get my first DAW (tomorrow) and some basic kit. Really interested in learning and experimenting with different things in EDM and your range of videos have been really inspiring, so thank you!
These are some awesome awesome tips. I don't make EDM music but I make Rage beats and they share similar traits, instruments and synths so I decided that maybe I should look for mixing tips on this side of the genre. Thank you
THANK YOU! Especially for #6. I've been Engineering for 25+ years, and I have always tried to teach younger Engineers, "Hi-Pass (almost)EVERYTHING". Explaining it almost verbatim the way you did here. I can't even begin to tell you how many times I've been called stupid, and/or something like a "know nothing wanna-be" for this tip alone. It's always nice to have solid knowledge reinforced by someone a bit more well known. Thanks again🙏
@@EDMTips I've been Engineering & Producing Rock & HipHop for decades, but only recently found a fascination with EDM. My first EDM song was an original I wrote as the "Final" for my Audio Production Degree. It was received well, but obviously I am more than aware that I know very little about Electronic Music. I found your video very well put together, and quite informative. So...thanks again!🙏
2 Questions 1: Do you do the entire mixdown process in mono? Or just flip between stereo & mono while mixing each instrument/group? 2: Do you recommend bouncing tracks to stems, then reimporting into a new mixdown project file?
I can chime in here because i have the answer youre looking for. 1. You will address the mono situation BEFORE you start your mixdown. Put a utility on the master and put your tune in mono. At this point use ONLY the faders to balance your song until it sounds right in mono. Remember, do not use any processing. Now turn your utility off - my guess is your track will sound weird because now the sides now sound out of balance. You can turn your utility up to 200% to solo the sides but at this point itll be time to use either an m/s gain plugin or to go into the synths themselves to start balancing the sides so their in sync with the mids/mono. One way youll know when its time to actually start the mixdown is the tune at this point should sound really solid on its own. As you start mixing just remember that every time you make a mixing decision to just flip the utility to mono, then check the sides solo, then listen in normal stereo. It sounds like a lot but i cant tell u how much time youre actually saving when you get disiplined at this. 2. If you got the cpu man dont bounce shit. If you dont got the cpu then do what u gotta do but its always easier to freeze than to bounce in case u need to get back to the original source.
I made a short summary if anyone is interested :) Thanks for the video, I will definitely apply your tips 00:49 - Mixing Tip 1: Good Headphones / Studio Monitors and listen to a lot of music on them to get used to them 01:31 - Mixing Tip 2: Reference Tracks (set to -12 db to compensate mastering on the reference track) 03:00 - Mixing Tip 3: Mono Switch (balanced in mono = great in stereo, easier for ears to mix in mono) 05:04 - Mixing Tip 4: Top-Down Mixing Approach (from most important element to less important elements (order: kick, bass, snare, lead)) 06:15 - Mixing Tip 5: Kick Anchoring (set it to a level (somwhere around -12db) and don't touch it for the mixing stage, everything has to work around the kick 08:21 - Mixing Tip 6: Hi-Pass Almost Everything (apart from kick and bass) 09:40 - Mixing Tip 7: Separate Sub Bass (Sub= < 120 Hz, Reason: If the sub freq. are not working, you can just increase the sub) 11:51 - Mixing Tip 8: Kick & Bass Buss/ Group (why: compression, saturation, pretty nice) 14:38 - Mixing Tip 9: Auxiliary Channels for Spatial Effects (why: control, e.g. eq the reverb seperately, not just the dry signal) 16:10 - Mixing Tip 10: Sidechain Compression (Boss Level: Source: main elemet (e.g. vocals) and duck the Reverb Aux Channel for this element) 18:07 - Mixing Tip 11: Room Reverb Channel (Tiny amount helps already. It will sound like it comes from the same room / space (=Glue)) 19:40 - Mixing Tip 12: Saturation Trick (for groups, very slightly adding - listen if the group does come out more (don't overdo it!)) 21:17 - Mixing Tip 13: Check Your Mix (multiple systems: car, smartphone, different headphones, Plugins help (e.g. Mixchecker Pro), also check that with your reference Track and compare your Track to it) 23:17 - Mixing Tip 14: Mix for Others (Practice, practice, practice, different music styles and genres)
Thank you so much for this video! We find so much gold in it. An interesting subject you could talk about is managing volumes of the different tracks over time, for different sections (climax, build up, break). It could allow people to bring contrast to their songs, and not keeping the same volume fader of the different tracks on the whole song.
Thank you for these tips. As one of those losing sleep over better mixing, this video is just mind blowing! If you’re obsessed with “cleaner and louder” mixes that will also improve the mastering process, this video is a divine touch! Thank you sooo much.
@@EDMTips I just wanted to let you know that, among all the very useful tips learned so far from your tutorials, EQ and mixing in MONO made such a big difference for me. When I switched to STEREO to check how the mix was coming up, I couldn’t believe my ears 👂. I can’t thank you enough. And also, how’s is this tutorial not blowing up the internet? How’s it that people are not freaking out about it??? So good! 😄
You have no idea how happy it makes me that I do quite a lot of these tips already! 😊 My own personal tip is about checking your mix: you only really need to check your mix on one system, a standard car stereo. 99% of the time, people listen to music while driving. If you can make your mix sound great on a car stereo with all the other driving noises going on around it then it will sound incredible everywhere else!

Focusing these gems in one video is just an incredible shortcut for the ones who want to be producer in the very early of their production process. Thanks, Will!
For me, the biggest game changer in my mixing was understanding proper "gain-staging". That should be and is the very first thing I do after tracking or importing audio sources. I prefer to use the older method with a VU meter in average mode over using peak metering. In addition, ensuring that your levels remain the same "unity" at input through to output as you add effect chains to channels. Next was the power of "bussing" or "grouping" in Ableton Live. Bussing with return effects like compression, saturation or reverb helped to glue track elements together in the overall mix. And as Will stated, investing in a good "Reference Track" plugin so you can compare what you're doing against a commercial track was paramount for me.
I used your tips and mixed my track. It's sounds much better! I gave it to outsource for mastering and today my track was approved on Cafe De Anatolia! Wooow Bro! I will recommend your channel to all our community in Moscow.

Funny how things like grouping, using auxilary for reverb and delay, etc are exactly how you'd do this with a classic analog mixer and outboard effects. Interesting video, nice presentation, and good tips, thanks!
What a fantastic video! Been mixing for long now and I already know these techniques well, but this is a perfect video if you are still working on becoming a professional mixer. Just perfect.
Thank you will, i'll try these tips this afternoon, i can't wait. I almost finished your course about music theory, is very very very very easy to follow, is very brilliant.
mixing in mono: helps to monitor on a single point speaker with no crossover, and therefore no holes. 2-way speakers all have a soft spot around the crossover where sounds can hide. i’m thinking of trying to hear snappy compression on genelec 1031s… but on an auratone 5c its no problem. headphones: sony mdr-7506 seem to be popular still. reverb/delay send/returns: good idea to filter BEFORE the reverb. subtract before multiply. can of course eq after to your heart’s content. just a good practice to filter before multiplying the potential problem freqs with spatial fx. can also use mid-side eq to take some 600 out of the mid channel on fx returns to carve space for bass clarity
Thank you really much !) Very useful techniques. You totally helped me to solve my low end issues. You doing great job and really helping. Thank you for quality and knowledge.🙌👍

Rock on! You're welcome! 🙂

I applied a handful of the tips that were new to me to a melodic techno track I''m working on and it's night and day, multiple level ups in a 24 hour period. 1) A little saturation everywhere is a game changer 2) Use those effects busses! All of a sudden it sounds like you're in one space with all the instruments, immediately glues the track together a bit, especially a touch of reverb on everything, subtle, even the kick, and 3) mix more quietly for later mastering, throw a Utility on the master channel and give it +6db of gain, mix to 0 db and then turn the utility off for mastering to give me 6db of headroom. Great stuff, thank you!
I like the tell and show approach, bruv. Nothing beats giving advice and then showing them in action. I too, learned a few new things. Cheers.
You're welcome, I am glad you found this helpful! 🙂🙌🏻
this is the best documentation in the world about mixing ever produced
Sidechain to the reverb on vocals is really a good thing. I was wondering for years why my vocals so lost and not in front.
This technique with low cutting reverb is hugh. Saturation on vocals great as well. That's are information that beginners not know and come up with frustration by joining the own music.
Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️
You're welcome, glad you found it helpful! 🙌🏻
That sidechaining of reverb and dry vocals and then compressing it, is the cherry pick of this video. Thank you .
11:15 wow that you even mention this is golden. I make dubstep and usually you want to modulate the mid and highs while keeping the sub bass untouched. I learned this from INFEKT but I'm very impressed that it's here aswell
It is indeed an invaluable tip! 🙌🏻
Dude oh my goodness. He is not kidding about the difference mixing in mono makes. Wow. Same with the kick anchoring. Love it man thank you so much
I'm happy to say I'd incorporated all these tips into my productions many years ago and can say you nailed it. The tips in this one video could save any newbie years of frustration!
Excellent presentation too! 👍👍
Thank you so much, I appreciate the feedback and kind words of support! 😇🙌🏻
One of the best tips I ever got was from My mate who was one of the main engineers who did loads of the biggest rave tracks..
He said when I’m doubt turn your computer monitor off ,restart your arrangement and you’ll feel the flow of the track better .. he used too have a note pad and write which parts needed changing and at what time..he also taught me that you know if a tracks working if listening back the track sounds like it doesn’t sound like it drags,if it sounds like it’s ended quick yet it’s been on 4 minutes you know your onto a winner.
Love it! Great tip 🤙
i've done mixing in mono a lot, and sometimes i even forget that it's mono and it sounds great until i realise, that i haven't yet tried to listen to stereo mix. it blew my mind how clean and full everything sounds. so yeah, mixing in mono is a great way to relax your ears and balance volumes/frequencies. also it's a good way to check if there are some crazy wide sounds, that lose a lot of punch in mono. also one of the reasons i think mono is important is because people sometimes tend to play songs on mono devices (like a phone speaker for example).
Hundred percent!
Hear hear! Happened to me as well, when you switch back to stereo the 'gates of heaven' open for you! Such a satisfying experience...😊
💯
Most phones actually have two stereo speakers. I know this because one of my phone speakers wasn’t working, so I wasn’t getti;g the full stereo sound.
I actually accidentally exported my track in mono to send to some other artists for feedback. They said it sounded really flat. And then when I looked back in my DAW I was like well no wonder... it's in mono lol.
Just applied the kick an 808 hi/low pass busses and fine tuning. It got wifey up off the couch an boogy'in to it. Thanks alot brother
You're welcome, Jaco, I am glad you found this helpful! 🙌🏻
Being able to mix the reverb seperate from the dry vocals is a great tip. Honestly never thought of that. Being able to take some bass off the reverb without affecting the main track.
It is indeed a very small game changer, I have to say! 🙂
oh man, that sidechain on reverb is genius! never in a million years would i have thought about that!
Glad you found it helpful, Danilo! 🙂🙌🏻
U wanna take ur sidechains to the next level then sidechain two instruments against each other at difference frequences and youll know what true glue sounds like
Super helpful! Def will try to use the compression on the reverb for my vocals. Recently got a delay plug-in with duck function and that helped immensely already!
Rock on! Glad it helped! 🙂
Bravo. You are maybe the only one in spreding the simple truth about mixing tricks.
Thank you, I am really glad you liked it! 🙌🏻
Just a tip with Span, if you use the vst plug you can sidechain the ref track in to span, show it as a different colour and just use the single instance
Love it! Great tip 🤙
You are a gift from the electronic music gods. I have been trying to wrap my head around 90% of these things in mixing and you answered and helped me understand them all in less than an hou after I read a whole book on mixing and came up empty.
I think reference tracks and high-quality monitoring are absolutely key. I remember being at music college and referencing my deep house track in 2013 against a Skrillex track at the time on Genelecs. It made me change so many aspects of the track and then quite amazingly the track went to BBC 1Xtra track of the week.
I agree!
Skrillex was a wise choice in terms of mixing/sound design
After first hearing Genelecs in 1987, I suggested them to my company who bought 450 pairs. Only a couple of years ago - -I got my own from ebay ! S30c (h). Immaculate - £900:.. ! worth the wait.
@@01jeffb Nice buy! I absolutely all the newer Genelecs I've worked on.
Man you’ve been popping up more and more often in my feed and I can now say this channel is one of the most valuable with regards to music production.
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words :)
Thanks Will - some absolute gold in here. Another option for emulating different systems is the Reference Check feature in Sonarworks, and you get to calibrate/correct room and headphones as well
Kick and Bass Bus ... wow a huge tip for me - this sounds so much deeper and more pro but with the reverb aux channel chain tip my eyes get wet because i was so thankfully about this huge tip!! Greetings from germany, Alex.
It is indeed a nice little tip! Glad it was helpful :)
That's a great list! From my personal experience I would like to add two things that really helped me:
1) Checking certain frequency bands on their own
For example applying a filter to the master to only hear frequencies below 70-90 Hz - so only the low end. Or only the mid bass section from like 90 - 300 Hz. And also comparing that to the same frequency range on the reference tracks. This is also helpful for peak matching with the reference tracks.
2) Being aware of the signal flow and the effect sequence
If you roll of low frequencies with an EQ and then put on saturation afterwards, you introduce new (probably unwanted) low frequencies to your sound. Or if you put a sidechain compression on a sound to let the kick cut threw the mix and then put on a reverb afterwards, the reverb again fills the space you wanted to create.
Very, very important additions!!
the first one is basically what he does with the mixchecker, its just different EQ presets you can switch fast
I did Will’s Radio Ready Program and other courses, and watch many of his youtube video’s. The things i’ve learned from him, man alive! I’m setting myself up for my next step in music production, and that is to make my music sound pro with becoming a student of his Accelerator Program. But i wanted a good base first before i take that step. Can’t wait to get to the top of the mountain and enjoy the view…. Thanks Will
That is awesome, Jurgen - thanks for sharing!! Looking forward to meeting you in the Accelerator :)
So I'm an older guy and have been watching tons of your videos before I get my first DAW (tomorrow) and some basic kit. Really interested in learning and experimenting with different things in EDM and your range of videos have been really inspiring, so thank you!
Define older? ;) I’m 45 and still doing this
@@DWINC I am 55 and still working toward signing my song with Armada Music and will never give up until Armin tells me to quit
I am 52 and have only been making music digitally for about 18 months.
You're welcome, Al :) I am no spring chicken either! What DAW did you decide to go for?
Hell yeah! Love this :)
i'm returning to this video to say that the mixing in mono tip just changed for good my mixes! Thanks!!!!
You're welcome, glad you found it helpful! 🙌🏻
These are some awesome awesome tips. I don't make EDM music but I make Rage beats and they share similar traits, instruments and synths so I decided that maybe I should look for mixing tips on this side of the genre. Thank you
You're welcome, glad you found them helpful! 🙌🏻
THANK YOU! Especially for #6.
I've been Engineering for 25+ years, and I have always tried to teach younger Engineers, "Hi-Pass (almost)EVERYTHING". Explaining it almost verbatim the way you did here.
I can't even begin to tell you how many times I've been called stupid, and/or something like a "know nothing wanna-be" for this tip alone.
It's always nice to have solid knowledge reinforced by someone a bit more well known.
Thanks again🙏
You're welcome, Todd, I am really glad you found this video helpful 🙌🏻
@@EDMTips I've been Engineering & Producing Rock & HipHop for decades, but only recently found a fascination with EDM.
My first EDM song was an original I wrote as the "Final" for my Audio Production Degree.
It was received well, but obviously I am more than aware that I know very little about Electronic Music.
I found your video very well put together, and quite informative.
So...thanks again!🙏
2 Questions
1: Do you do the entire mixdown process in mono? Or just flip between stereo & mono while mixing each instrument/group?
2: Do you recommend bouncing tracks to stems, then reimporting into a new mixdown project file?
I can chime in here because i have the answer youre looking for.
1. You will address the mono situation BEFORE you start your mixdown. Put a utility on the master and put your tune in mono. At this point use ONLY the faders to balance your song until it sounds right in mono. Remember, do not use any processing. Now turn your utility off - my guess is your track will sound weird because now the sides now sound out of balance. You can turn your utility up to 200% to solo the sides but at this point itll be time to use either an m/s gain plugin or to go into the synths themselves to start balancing the sides so their in sync with the mids/mono. One way youll know when its time to actually start the mixdown is the tune at this point should sound really solid on its own. As you start mixing just remember that every time you make a mixing decision to just flip the utility to mono, then check the sides solo, then listen in normal stereo. It sounds like a lot but i cant tell u how much time youre actually saving when you get disiplined at this.
2. If you got the cpu man dont bounce shit. If you dont got the cpu then do what u gotta do but its always easier to freeze than to bounce in case u need to get back to the original source.
Really helpful thanks. I'm not an EDM guy but getting the bass and kick to play nicely is the bane of my life. Splitting, bussing etc is a must.
You're welcome, Alan, glad you found it helpful! 🙂🙌🏻
This is just amazing! Thank you so much for this video.
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed :)
I made a short summary if anyone is interested :)
Thanks for the video, I will definitely apply your tips
00:49 - Mixing Tip 1: Good Headphones / Studio Monitors and listen to a lot of music on them to get used to them
01:31 - Mixing Tip 2: Reference Tracks (set to -12 db to compensate mastering on the reference track)
03:00 - Mixing Tip 3: Mono Switch (balanced in mono = great in stereo, easier for ears to mix in mono)
05:04 - Mixing Tip 4: Top-Down Mixing Approach (from most important element to less important elements (order: kick, bass, snare, lead))
06:15 - Mixing Tip 5: Kick Anchoring (set it to a level (somwhere around -12db) and don't touch it for the mixing stage, everything has to work around the kick
08:21 - Mixing Tip 6: Hi-Pass Almost Everything (apart from kick and bass)
09:40 - Mixing Tip 7: Separate Sub Bass (Sub= < 120 Hz, Reason: If the sub freq. are not working, you can just increase the sub)
11:51 - Mixing Tip 8: Kick & Bass Buss/ Group (why: compression, saturation, pretty nice)
14:38 - Mixing Tip 9: Auxiliary Channels for Spatial Effects (why: control, e.g. eq the reverb seperately, not just the dry signal)
16:10 - Mixing Tip 10: Sidechain Compression (Boss Level: Source: main elemet (e.g. vocals) and duck the Reverb Aux Channel for this element)
18:07 - Mixing Tip 11: Room Reverb Channel (Tiny amount helps already. It will sound like it comes from the same room / space (=Glue))
19:40 - Mixing Tip 12: Saturation Trick (for groups, very slightly adding - listen if the group does come out more (don't overdo it!))
21:17 - Mixing Tip 13: Check Your Mix (multiple systems: car, smartphone, different headphones, Plugins help (e.g. Mixchecker Pro), also check that with your reference Track and compare your Track to it)
23:17 - Mixing Tip 14: Mix for Others (Practice, practice, practice, different music styles and genres)
Thanks for the round up, I am sure others will find it helpful 🙂
Thank you so much for this video! We find so much gold in it. An interesting subject you could talk about is managing volumes of the different tracks over time, for different sections (climax, build up, break). It could allow people to bring contrast to their songs, and not keeping the same volume fader of the different tracks on the whole song.
Great suggestion! Definitely something we go into in my Accelerator program
Thank you for these tips.
As one of those losing sleep over better mixing, this video is just mind blowing! If you’re obsessed with “cleaner and louder” mixes that will also improve the mastering process, this video is a divine touch!
Thank you sooo much.
You’re welcome, Rafael, I am really glad you found this video helpful 🙂🙌🏻
@@EDMTips
I just wanted to let you know that, among all the very useful tips learned so far from your tutorials, EQ and mixing in MONO made such a big difference for me. When I switched to STEREO to check how the mix was coming up, I couldn’t believe my ears 👂. I can’t thank you enough. And also, how’s is this tutorial not blowing up the internet? How’s it that people are not freaking out about it??? So good! 😄
You have no idea how happy it makes me that I do quite a lot of these tips already! 😊
My own personal tip is about checking your mix: you only really need to check your mix on one system, a standard car stereo.
99% of the time, people listen to music while driving. If you can make your mix sound great on a car stereo with all the other driving noises going on around it then it will sound incredible everywhere else!
Love that!
Pretty good video! I have forgotten about the mono trick, but I will keep it in mind from now on
I wish I would’ve seen a tutorial like this when I started out! Your videos are always so good and very helpful! Wish you much success! 🎉
Thank you! You too!
WAW!
Super cool!
Specially TIP 10 with sidechaining vocal on the vocal reverb! wow! Super cool! Thanx for sharing!
Also the saturation on SN etc is cool.

This video tutorial JUST AMAZING. I'm producing as my hobby since 2015 and I have seen some of these tips from hundreds of different videos. Focusing these gems in one video is just an incredible shortcut for the ones who want to be producer in the very early of their production process. Thanks, Will!
For me, the biggest game changer in my mixing was understanding proper "gain-staging". That should be and is the very first thing I do after tracking or importing audio sources. I prefer to use the older method with a VU meter in average mode over using peak metering. In addition, ensuring that your levels remain the same "unity" at input through to output as you add effect chains to channels.
Next was the power of "bussing" or "grouping" in Ableton Live. Bussing with return effects like compression, saturation or reverb helped to glue track elements together in the overall mix.
And as Will stated, investing in a good "Reference Track" plugin so you can compare what you're doing against a commercial track was paramount for me.
Is there a great tutorial you can direct me on gain staging?
@@Thesuproducergain staging is important but often a circle jerk of a topic in the digital age
I used your tips and mixed my track. It's sounds much better! I gave it to outsource for mastering and today my track was approved on Cafe De Anatolia! Wooow Bro! I will recommend your channel to all our community in Moscow.

@@omarr2423 demands, normally 12 to 48 should be a good choice :)
@@omarr2423 I would say 48dB as the max, and be aware that lower down in the frequency range, the steeper curves can sound a bit strange and cause phasing issues

What a fantastic video! Been mixing for long now and I already know these techniques well, but this is a perfect video if you are still working on becoming a professional mixer. Just perfect.
Thank you will, i'll try these tips this afternoon, i can't wait.
I almost finished your course about music theory, is very very very very easy to follow, is very brilliant.
mixing in mono: helps to monitor on a single point speaker with no crossover, and therefore no holes. 2-way speakers all have a soft spot around the crossover where sounds can hide. i’m thinking of trying to hear snappy compression on genelec 1031s… but on an auratone 5c its no problem.
headphones: sony mdr-7506 seem to be popular still.
reverb/delay send/returns: good idea to filter BEFORE the reverb. subtract before multiply. can of course eq after to your heart’s content. just a good practice to filter before multiplying the potential problem freqs with spatial fx. can also use mid-side eq to take some 600 out of the mid channel on fx returns to carve space for bass clarity
Thanks for sharing!
Oh wow, that sidechain on the reverb bus is genius! Never seen anyone suggest that before, it’s so effective.
Glad you found it helpful! 🙂
Some people also use an envelope follower (volume) turn it around and put it on the reverb mix. this also gives cleaner reverb
watched thinking it would be another generic mix tutorial, but your tips helped me so much!!!
Glad it was helpful!
